My area of focus is individual therapy, couples counseling,
family therapy
, relationships & intimacy issues, emotional abandonment & cut-off, communication & conflict resolution, grief & loss, low self-worth, childhood wounds, trauma, depression, and anxiety.
I love my work as a therapist and find value in holding a safe space for my clients to seek freedom and growth. I often find my clients being stuck in similar cycles/patterns and wanting help to find different ways to navigate through life. It is a privilege to share space with my clients to explore and work through these areas of unresolved issues to bring liberation and hope.

My goal is to provide clients with a safe place to talk, sort through feelings and explore issues that may be affecting their mood, behavior, motivation or relationships. Using a combination of supportive therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, my work is about supporting clients while looking at the sources of distress and helping them to improve their reactions, make changes, and cope with life and others in a healthier way.

I offer psychotherapy through a person centered approach and will support you or your
family
to get through core issues.
As a therapist, I look for the basic goodness of human beings and try to bring clients having locus of control in their lives and share perspectives leading clients to feel liberated so they find the meaning of life; fulfillment and happiness. This takes practice, as our minds naturally scan for the negative, but if we try, we can almost always find something good about you and others which will lead us to heal and peace and may bring harmony and joy to our life. Personally, I enjoy reading books regarding history and philosophy. I have a strong passion for helping children and adults, including parenting issues.

People do not exist in a vacuum. The person you are today is a collage of various influences and experiences. These influences range from relationships with
family
and friends, community, religion, spiritual beliefs, socioeconomic backgrounds, education, and the culture in which you were raised. What brought you in today does not solely define you and it may not be the root of your pain. Through therapy, we have the potential to move beneath the surface and go deeper into the roots of your struggles to help you develop a greater understanding of what troubles you.

I provide individual, couple,
family therapy
and premarital counseling.
I believe being in an equilibrium state is one of the keys to maintain a healthy well being, however, we often face many challenges that could easily lead to a disequilibrium. My role as a therapist is to work with you collaboratively in order to address your needs, to guide you in understanding how your past experiences shape your present self; to help you in identifying your thought patterns and emotions that affect your behaviors; and to coach you so that you are equipped when dealing with different life challenges. By working as a team, you will eventually be able to restore the balance and maintain a healthy well being.

My specialities include, but are not limited to, working with anxiety, bullying, depression,
family
challenges, life events & transitions, peer relationships, school problems, social skills, and self-esteem.
I am here to listen to you. I work with children, teens, and adults to support exploration of difficult issues and life changes. Often what brings someone to seek counseling, either for themselves or for their child, is being faced with a challenge they need support navigating and resolving. This issue may result from an atypical experience or be more pervasive, and can bring about feelings of anger, depression, anxiety, low self-worth, or communication issues. Taking the risk to ask for help is the first step on the road toward healing and growth.

Maybe you've been stuck and unable to see your way forward, or you feel a burden you can't quite relieve yourself of. Often times we can find our way with the support of
family
or friends. But sometimes we need the help of a certified professional. I view therapy through the lens of self compassion, understanding and collaboration. It is a moving dialogue that shapes healing and being. The development of a therapeutic relationship and interventions are individualized because mental health treatment is more than treating symptoms and a diagnosis.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
